The World of RenaissanceThe Medieval times were different in many ways from the Renaissance. In the Middle Ages, Medieval people were dominated by the church and the only recognized religion was the Catholic religion. They were living a stagnant life were they were bound by rules of religion as even the education taught was based on religion which was mainly for boys. The Middle Ages was immediately followed by the Renaissance which means “rebirth” because in many ways this time period was the rebirth of the Middle Ages. People broke free from the boundaries of the church as people became aware of mathematics, science and even music. These are the differences between the mindset of the Medieval people and people from Renaissance. The mindset of people can also be seen through art of Middle Ages and the Renaissance. Art of the Medieval times was very restricted to religion as they focused on symbolizing Christian concepts and values which left the paintings and statues with no realism. If the paintings presented the human body, it would be out of proportion and the statues were “shallow and flat”. The Renaissance art was very realistic as it used perspective in art which involved less emphasis on religion and more on the human body. “Perspective is a technique of depicting volumes and spatial relationships on a flat surface.” An example of such art is Sandro Botticelli’s “The Birth of Venus” from 1485 which involves mastered perspective by Botticelli because of the portrayal of Venus, use of background and the proper representation of the human body. The outlook of Medieval people and Renaissance people was very different in terms of attitude and art.

Renaissance is the French word for “rebirth”. The major characteristics of the Renaissance are Secularism, Humanism, and Classical antiquity. Secularism mainly means rejecting religious beliefs. It focused on understanding thing separate from religious thought. It started with focusing on things other than...

...class began to gain power in the cities, as trade and commerce became full enterprises in their own right. With the fear of contagion a distant bad memory, and people eager to get out of their homes and see more of the world, international and even global trade began to surge forward. Along with products and wealth, ideas also spread from one nation to another. Fashions in Venice soon became the fashions in Paris and eventually London. Speaking of the British Islands, the well-known practice of young privileged men “touring” the continent first began during the Renaissance. The ideas these travelers brought back to their homelands would influence culture, government, literature and fashion for many years thereafter. Until the Renaissance, Britain was regarded as something of a wilderness, lacking culture and refinement. Even the English language was disdained. The preeminent English philosopher Thomas More published his Utopia in Latin, and a vernacular English translation did appear until decades afterward.
The single greatest innovation of the Renaissance era was the printing press, put into service around 1440 by Johannes Gutenberg. Rudimentary presses had existed for a long time, but Gutenberg’s design maximized printing efficiency in a way that changed the world of arts, letters, and ideas forever. His greatest innovation was a means to rapidly produce movable typesets, meaning that new sheets of text could be set in place and printed...

...The Evolution of Italian Renaissance:
* Economic growth laid the basis material
* 1050-1300
* Renaissance is a term used to describe the cultural achievements of the fourteenth through sixteenth centuries
* Venice grew enormously rich through overseas trade. (profited from the diversion of the fourth Crusade to Constantinople)
* Genoa and Venice made important strides in shipbuilding
* Italians bought cheap wool from England and resold them to Africa for large profits (dangerous, but worth it)
* Florence was the first artistic and literary manifestation of the Italian Renaissance (Beverly Hills of the Italian Renaissance)
* Florentine mercantile families began to dominate European banking on both sides of the Alps.
* The Florentine wool industry was the major factor in the city’s financial expansion and population increase.
* Florence purchased the best-quality wool from England and Spain and made really badass techniques for its manufacture into cloth. (This created an influx in jobs and population)
* Florence sold their high quality woolen cloth at the highest prices in the fairs, markets, and bazaars of Europe, Asia, and Africa.
Communes and Republics:
* The northern Italian cities were communes (sworn associations of free men seeking complete political and economic independence from local nobles)
* Merchant guilds that formed the communes built and maintained the city walls, regulated trade, raised taxes...

...renaissance is estimated to have occurred between 14th and 17th century. This time in history begun in Italy a place called Florence and spread to other places in Europe. The period is known as a time of drastic explosion of knowledge where the world underwent critical developmental stages. The period is known to be the link between modernity and the middle high periods. The term renaissance was defined in France by Jules Michelet in 16th century defining it as a break from middle ages to the modern human place in the world. In the 19th century, the historians from diverse backgrounds have confronted each other concerning the validity of renaissance period (Peter 1972). Major historical scholars have argued that the reality of renaissance has been clouded by dramatic contrast and metaphors which make the rebirth period a mythical phrase. Renaissance is seen to elicit unusual occurrences, which cannot be accounted for due to the short duration by which events are recorded to have occurred. Thus, the rebirth period is a myth rather than reality.
Peter burke in the article The Myth of Renaissance has disagreed with the existence of renaissance period. His arguments articulate well with the development experienced in the mediaeval world to the modern world. Peter sights that renaissance did not only occur during the period of 14th to 17th century, but the developments began back in the medieval periods (Thomas 1997)....

...Hello World!
A "Hello, world!" program is a computer program that outputs "Hello, World!" (or some variant thereof) on
a display device. Because it is typically one of the simplest programs possible in most programming
languages, it is by tradition often used to illustrate to beginners the most basic syntax of a programming
language. It is also used to verify that a language or system is operating correctly.

Purpose[edit]
A "Hello, world!" program has become the traditional first program that many people learn. In general, it is
simple enough so that people who have no experience with computer programming can easily understand
it, especially with the guidance of a teacher or a written guide. Using this simple program as a
basis, computer science principles or elements of a specific programming language can be explained to
novice programmers. Experienced programmers learning new languages can also gain a lot of information
about a given language's syntax and structure from a "Hello, world!" program.
In addition, "Hello, world!" can be a useful sanity test to make sure that a language's compiler, development
environment, and run-time environment are correctly installed. Configuring a complete
programming toolchain from scratch to the point where...

...Southern Atlantic coast and Gulf coast states.
• Tornadoes are most common in the Plain States, the Mississippi Valley and Florida.
• River floods occur in the Mississippi river valley. Lighting is a year round event across the Southern part of U.S.
• Severe winter storms affect the upper plain States, the Midwest, the Western Mountains, and the Northeast coast of the U.S.
• Earthquakes are most likely to occur along the West Coast from Alaska southward through California. The meeting of the North American plate and the East Pacific plate rise causes horizontal displacement along the San Andreas Fault.
6) To what is the population increase in U.S. due?
The relatively rapid annual population increase in the U.S. is unusual among the world´s materially wealthy and technologically advanced countries, due in part to the young immigrant communities within the country who have larger families and higher birth rates h other groups.
7) Where are the vast majority of Canadians concentrated?
The vast majority of Canadians are concentrated in a belt across the southern part of the country nearly parallel to the border with the U.S.
8) Why is Canada an attractive destination for immigrants?
Government policy protects multiculturalism and well known high living standards combined make Canada an attractive destination for peoples emigrating from their homelands.

...relationship because it builds a bond between the parent and the child. Children feel loved when their parents play with them and it helps build trust.
4. Do you think you will be a good parent? Why or why not? I can only hope that I will be a good parent but I feel as though I will be a good parent simply because I have an amazing parent myself who has instilled a lot into me that will help me in life. Maybe that includes raising some children of my own.
1. Why did the men say that they were ready for children? There were things they wanted to do as a couple before they had children. So they took the time out to enjoy their lives because they were in no rush to have children and they probably knew that once they brought a child into the world that a lot of the things they want to do will cease.
2. What did the men have to learn as new fathers? They had to learn to get involved in their children’s’ lives because before they were fathers they were not too much involved with babies.
3. Do you think the fathers enjoy fatherhood more today than in the past? Why or why not? It depends on the man. It also depends on many other factors like if the birth of this child was planned. It may have been unexpected and they weren’t prepared which could lead to stress; in my opinion that is not enjoyable. Men who wanted a child and who are in a good steady marriage or relationship where they agreed on this child are probably happier and enjoy parenthood because they knew...

...legend, prophecy, sermons, love poems, divination, magic, and many others. Some scriptures contain songs for sacrifice, whereas others have no ceremonies. Every religion has specific things that your higher upper asks for you to do. The scriptures are like the rules of life that you have to follow in order to reach your spiritual goals. Religion is big because people need to believe that there is something bigger then themselves that drives them to do certain things, good or bad. Religion gives you a sense of belonging to a community that will make you feel at home and will guide you to do better things for yourself and the people around you.
One of the oldest religions in the world is Hinduism and is certainly the most internally diverse. Although it is the third largest religion in the world, Hinduism exists primarily in India and Nepal. People who follow the Hindu religion are known to be very into meditation and calmness. The Hindu religion does not only follow one god, but they have many gods who they look up to. Hindus are meant to be good people who stay away from sinfulness and they focus on finding their own true self. Ancient Hindu texts, particularly the Upanishads, perceived the individual self or "atman" as the immortal pure essence of each being. The problem in Hinduism is that people do not have means of attaining enlightenment. Another problem in Hinduism is the existence of suffering and evil which is the central concept of...
